Tired of chocolates, flowers and romantic dinners on Valentine's Day? How about giving him a vasectomy?
International family planning charity Marie Stopes is offering a cut-rate Valentine's Day voucher for a vasectomy, touting the gift as a perfect way to "give her a new man".
The voucher offers couples seeking a freer sex life 50 pounds ($72) off the price of the operation, a snip at only 200 pounds.
"We know it's a bit of an odd present, but at least it doesn't make you fat like chocolates and there will be no wilting roses either," a spokeswoman for the charity said.
